Here’s a thought for Dusty Harry and the rest of the Senate Donks:

House GOP dares Senate to vote on a bill to repeal ‘Obamacare’

House Republicans already are looking past Wednesday’s expected vote to repeal Democrats’ health care law, going so far as to dare Senate Democrats to bring the bill up for a vote in their chamber.

“If Harry Reid is so confident that the repeal vote should die in the Senate then he should bring it up for a vote if he’s so confident he’s got the votes,” House Majority Leader Eric Cantor, Virginia Republican, told reporters, laying down a challenge to Mr. Reid, the Nevada Democrat who controls the Senate schedule.

Uf the Senate votes it down, c’est la vie…that’s politics…but one starts to wonder whether or not Reid is really confident that his own partisans, especially those up for election in 2012 will hang tough. Either way, the outcome of a Senate vote would be instructive on one level or another.
